Paul Simon Lyrics

Album: One Trick Pony

Oh, Marion Lyrics

The boy's got brains

He just don't use 'em that's all

The boy's got brains

He just refuse to use 'em and that's all

He said "The more I got to thinkin

The less I tend to laugh"

The boy's got brains

He just abstains

The boy's got a heart

But it beats on the opposite side

It's a strange phenomenon

The laws of nature defied

He said "Its a chance I had to take

So I shifted my heart for its safety sake"

The boy's got a heart but it beats on

His opposite side

Oh, Marion,

I think I'm in trouble here

I should have believed you

When I heard you saying it

The only time

That love is an easy game

Is when two other people 

Are playing it

The boy's got a voice

But the voice is his natural disguise

Yes the boy's got a voice

But his words don't connect to his eyes

He says "Oh, but when I sing

I can hear the truth auditioning".

The boy's got a voice

But the voice is natural
